Default Rim Poll! - Another one of these!

Well since my last one I have learned enough. However, keep in mind, I am still a student, paying all on my own. My tires are starting to wear and I just would rather get some rims because I planned on it soon anyways.

Keep in mind the car will be on Tein SS, Cut Fenders, w/ Supra Brakes F/R eventually. This car WILL be supercharged so keep that in mind too.

I have 3 I am looking at. In order from least to greatest in price... So I am looking for bang for buck.

G35 OEM 19" Rays Forged

thanks for the pic SCpwner

About $800 or so WITH Tires

JIC Magic J-Force 07
18x8.5 +25
18x9.5+12
(wish I could get fronts more agressive)


About $1200

Work XD9
18x9 +30
18x10 +18


$1394 shipped


Really undecided.... save money go for the G35.... spend a good amoutn get the XD9's.. or jic in the middle...

I am not a fan of any of them, but if I had to choose I would go with the JIC's...

I like the G35 wheels but only on Infiniti's.

Not a fan of the other 2 but if I had to choose, it would be the JIC.

Works.

I prefer dish so that eliminates the JIC, and the G35 wheels have horrible offsets for the SC. Too sunken for my tastes. No better than stock other than being taller.

like? Im not really a fan of USED rims. I dont like buying USED items. I always get screwed on it some how. Only way I would get used wheels would be for SP1's or Meisters in black/polished with 4"+ of lip.


Thanks for the replies. The car WILL be sporty... The only one that has lip is the Work Emotions, like 3+ in the rear.

G35 = Local, JIC = racinglab, Work = GB Price on a diff forum


====

I do favor the last 2, but the G35 are cheap... and college.... and other projects. Im just afraid I wont be satisfied.

I wish I could see the JIC on a car with those offsets thats larger than 200x200...

I added a pic of the XD9's

I like them all. I would have to go with the G35 wheels because they come with tires and after getting tires they would come out to less then half the price as the others. If you get tired of them you could always sell the G wheels and still make some decent money back.
